Weather information for the marine environment is used for a very diverse range of activities which can be split, loosely, between leisure and professional activities. Maritime Meteorology will concentrate on the professional uses of weather information. A variety of papers will be presented, some from providers and some from users of weather information. The topics addressed by the papers will include weather forecasting, the calculation of met ocean design criteria and the requirements of legal and insurance professionals.
This meeting was organised by Norman Lynagh, Chair of the RMetS History Group.
This meeting was supported by Trinity House and The Challenger Society and is part of the Royal Meteorological Society National Meetings programme, open to all, from expert to enthusiast, for topical discussions on the latest advances in weather and climate.
